What are the values of posture?
Good posture supports your spine, so your spine can better support your body. The "core" muscles of your trunk are strengthened with good posture, allowing you to twist, turn, bend, run, jump and walk without needless strain or sprain injuries. Also, you can make your body shape look much better than if you stand and walk correctly. Correct posture is also a real help when it comes to slimming down and staying slim.

What is the definition of good posture?
There are two main principles for getting good posture. 1. Practice correct posture in everyday activities: standing, sitting, laying, bending and walking. 2. A balanced exercise program that strengthens both antagonist and protagonist muscles. For example, if you do sit-ups to strengthen your stomach muscles you must do equal conditioning of the lower back (antagonist muscles). If you do not do this your body will become out of balance and you will develop poor posture. The fundamentals of good posture are a "straight" back and keeping your center of gravity over the load bearing joints, shoulders, hips, knees and ankles. For in depth information refer to "8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back" by Esther Gokhale, L.Ac. and "The Pain-Free Program" by Carey, Anthony M.A., C.S.C.S.. Both are excellent sources that teach how to develop good posture.

Treatment options may include physical therapy to strengthen the muscles supporting the spine and improve posture.

Scoliosis refers to an abnormal twisting of the spine. Rather than being in perfect alignment, the vertebrae are sometimes out of alignment relative to the vertebrae above and below them.
